12 Best Chinese Anime of All Time

Anime is a Japanese word that means “animation.” If we take the word literally, every country has its own anime. But, through time, I’ve learned that when the term “anime” is used, it refers to the type of art utilized in Japanese animations. When we refer to Chinese anime, we are referring to animations developed in China or adaptations of manga or Manhua created in China (Chinese comics). Before we get started on the list, you should be aware that switching from Japanese to Chinese anime will make the characters’ voices seem strange at first (as it did for many people), but with patience, you will adjust. So, without further ado, here is a list of the best Chinese anime ever produced. Several of these Chinese anime may be found on Crunchyroll, Funimation, Hulu, and Netflix.

He quickly learns about spirit power and, wanting to create a name for himself, sets off on a mission to put his tremendous abilities to good use.

His mother’s ring, which absorbed all of his advancement, was the reason for this. This went on for six years, until he was fifteen years old.

When Xiao Yan made contact with the ring one day, he ran into an older adult named Yao Chen. Yao Chen became his master, and Xiao Yan began to make significant strides in his martial arts abilities. He also discovers the perpetrators of his mother’s death and resolves to avenge them. The show can be viewed here.
